Win a copy of Resident Evil: Chronicles HD Collection for the PSN!

Behold, we have two codes to giveaway for Resident Evil: Chronicles HD Collection, the remastered collection that contains two games originally released on the Wii, now available as one downloadable offering via the PlayStation Network.

The collection features 2007’s Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, as well as 2009’s Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. Both titles originally appeared exclusively on the Wii, but Capcom has thrown on a shiny new coat of paint and released them into the wild for PS3 owners to experience.

Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles was released between Resident Evil 4 and RE5, and it retells the events of earlier games from the point-of-view of Albert Wesker and an Umbrella Corp scientist, filling in gaps up through RE3: Nemesis.

Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles was released after Resident Evil 5, but like its companion it retells earlier events, this time through the eyes of Claire Redfield and Leon Kennedy.

If you are a fan of the series—and not just the games, but the overall mythology created by Capcom for the Resident Evil universe—then both titles are musts to learn more about what is going on.

So, how can you get ahold of these games? Shy of just, ya know, buying them? Enter a comment below telling us what your favorite survival horror game of all time is, and you will automatically be entered to win. The winner will be selected on Tuesday, July 31 at noon. We will send codes to winners that afternoon.

That’s it, comment to win. The contest is open to North American residents only. Good luck to all!

Thanks to everyone that entered!  The winners have been notified.  Keep checking back for more contests, we have plenty planned in the coming weeks.

Emulators have changed the iPhone forever
Street Fighter emulated on an iPhone.

The iPhone App Store is finally home to a few emulators. For folks not into gaming, an emulator is software that allows you to run code from another platform. In this case, we are talking about emulators that let you play titles from retro game consoles (such as the Game Boy Advance) by taking the code installed on hardware (like a cartridge) and letting it run via apps on non-native machines (such as iPhones and iPads).

It seems fans have kept their eyes on this landmark development. Soon after its release, the Delta emulator app climbed to the top of the App Store download charts in 35 countries. An iPad app is already on its way. The momentum continued with the release of the Gamma emulator for PlayStation 1 titles. And last week, PPSSPP – arguably the best mobile emulator out there – landed on the App Store.

How to high five in XDefiant
So, we've covered how giving a high five is a great way to show appreciation to a teammate for a job well done, but what if we told you that high fives in XDefiant aren't actually, well, high fives? Strangely enough, you won't be actually handing out high fives, but rather thumbs-up sthat are, for whatever reason, called "high fives."

XDefiant ‘Unable to Find a Match’ error: troubleshooting and how to fix
XDefiant

Online shooters like XDefiant have one key requirement: You need to be able to find matches in order to play. Most games launch with a few errors, but in this case, the majority of people hoping to play Ubisoft's latest free-to-play title are getting hit with the "Unable to Find a Match" error when looking for a game. This isn't actually an issue with too few people playing the game, especially since it has cross-platform support, so what's really going on? Here's how you can attempt to resolve the "Unable to Find a Match" error in XDefiant.
How to fix the 'Unable to Find a Match' error
This particular error is a little misleading because it implies no matches are available, but it is really an issue with your connection or the games servers themselves.

If it is indeed the Ubisoft servers that are struggling, which is most likely during the launch period when the most players will be trying to play at once, there is unfortunately nothing you can do but wait for the issues to be resolved on the developer's end. You can check on the XDefiant server status via this website.
